It’s not an elitist response - it’s the truth. I know people who own and run businesses who are having a hard time finding American workers with the skills they need.

Newt is going off the rails on immigration. He wants to keep people who have been here 25 years. Well, 25 years ago, in 1986, we had an amnesty. So those folks who came here 25 years ago came right after an amnesty.

How does Newt expect to get rid of those who don't meet his criteria? Newt must be defeated. He must be stopped.

13 years Army with medical discharge.

If you served in the Army, how can you sit there and claim that your life is more important than your freedom? If I wanted to give up my freedom, I'd move to North Korea.

Good answer-absolutely correct.

And they also forget that if those illegals are working now, it is some american’s job they have taken.

Few conservatives and/or Republicans support taxpayer funded subsidies for ILLEGAL aliens. Don’t count on the support of any of the others going to Rick Perry, the man on stage who enthusiastically supports such a thing.

Newt would be even worse than Romney. You can bet Newt will legalize all the illegal aliens and try and spin it as a big success for conservatives.

I think Newt is looking for some Hispanic support. Up the road, it may make a difference in one of the primaries.

Bachman is intransigent on illegal immigration that makes it impractical, if not impossible, for her to be elected

Sorta of like calling border fences silly and calling those who oppose affirmative action for illegals heartless.

“Mitten’s Brylcreem seems to be wearing off.”

Remember... A little dab ‘l do ya

It looks like Mitt used the whole tube.

It’s not just his answers that are slick.
